OK, I made burbara tonight for St. Barbara's Day. It came out really good. It's a traditional dish for Middle Eastern Greeks and Arab Christians. It's made of wheat berries soaked and boiled for hours, then spiced with fennel, cinnamon, star anise, nutmeg and cloves. It's topped with nuts and pomegranate seeds, and given to kids on St. Barbara's Day. It is intense and exotic; just what we needed on a cold Montreal night.
